Section 990.300  Actions Affecting Responsibility and Prequalification

At any time, CDB may consider whether an action is warranted concerning a CM's prequalification.  Actions that may be taken include one or more of the following:

a)         Interim or Emergency Suspension or Modification

CDB may summarily suspend or modify a CM's prequalification in accordance with Section 16 of the Capital Development Board Act [20 ILCS 3105/16].

b)         Debarment

CDB may debar a CM to exclude it from making submittals for CDB contracts as authorized by statute.  The period of debarment shall be not less than five years and may be permanent when warranted or as authorized by law [20 ILCS 3105/16].

c)         Modification of Prequalification

CDB may modify or restrict a CM's prequalification as appropriate, including, but not limited to, one or more of the following:

1)         Limiting the size or type of contracts for which a CM may submit proposals for a specified period of time, or until a current contract is substantially or fully complete.

2)         Limiting the number of CDB contracts a CM may enter into for a specified period of time, or until a current contract is substantially or fully complete.

3)         Limiting the aggregate dollar amount of contracts the CM may enter into with CDB.

4)         Imposing limits as set forth in this subsection (c) pending performance on the CM's next CDB contract in instances where the CM has no current CDB contracts.

d)         Conditional Prequalification

CDB may condition prequalification (which may be otherwise limited) on the CM's successful utilization of a management plan, evaluations, conferences, or other methods designed to achieve satisfactory performance or compliance with contract requirements.

e)         Suspension

CDB may suspend a CM firm or disqualify a CM firm temporarily from submitting for a CDB contract, for a period of time up to five years.  The CM's failure to timely pursue administrative action as provided by Subpart D of this Part shall constitute consent of the CM to CDB's action.
